Lately my power door locks would lock while driving and will not unlock with the switch. You have to manually unlovk them door by door. The problem affects my alarm also it the locks are engaged the alarm can not unlock them. I checkl the wiring on the switch and everything seems fine. Please offer me some adice. I heard that there is a relay switch for the locks could that be it and where is it located

Thanks for the advice! Im not too automotive literate therefore where is the BCM. and when you speak of the wires to check you do mean on the door panel where the switch is correct? Also when I put the key and turn it in the ignition the chime does come on.
Thanks

U had asked about the relays
all relays are located in the fuse box
u have lock and unlock relays
also I believe u have driver door unlock relay too
check fuses
BCM (body control module )
is located left side of instrument panel below steering column


if u can have the BCM scanned that should help
good luck
